“Eirlys Hunter writes classic, child-driven adventure with tenacious characters. This is a contemporary story of land ownership and environmental rebellion.”
Julia Marshall, Publisher
The land holds the truth ... the maps will reveal it.
Sal, Joe, Francie and Humphrey Santander are mapmakers looking for their father, a famous explorer who disappeared on his last expedition.
Their search takes them to Cruxcia, where the people are fighting to protect their land from the all-powerful Grania Trading Company. The Santanders’ mapping skills may be the missing piece in the Cruxcian race to save the ancient valley—and the key to reuniting their family.
